Yeah, sorry, it takes me a while to write, reread, edit, etc.!  :)

The point data looks good itself in MeshLab, and I was able to get something
with surfaces that remained okay, but it goes lumpy when I attempt to finalize
it. Not knowing what I'm doing with the "octree" etc. parameters and sampling
increased to 50 isn't helping, just causes a "fail" if I use big numbers. LOL

Anyway... file is there now. Or should show up soon.
Good luck! And thanks for the ability to get this far, very cool thing you made.

Bob
